City Looks At Electronic Voting

Voting in the next municipal election may be just a mouse click away.

The city is looking at an internet voting option for the 2014 municipal elections.

Heather Kasprick is the city's deputy clerk and says electronic voting has a number of advantages.

Kasprick says the internet voting option may also be cheaper.

The city spent about 50 thousand dollars three years ago to conduct the last election via mail-in ballot.  

Council has agreed to seek a request for proposals for electronic voting.
